Lobster Ravioli (though they only have it at certain times of the year)

Lobster Bisque

Chef Aldans Teriyaki Chicken Meatballs

Just got some really good Organic Jalepeno and Lime tortilla chips yesterday, don't remember the brand, but they're solid.

The one in east Plano has the separate liquor store, but not Kirkland brand liquors.

If your wife likes expensive shampoo/conditioner, they have some kirkland brand stuff that is really good quality for about 1/5 of the price of the stuff you get at the salon. Cheap enough that I use it (noticeably better than the Suave/Nivea/whatever's on sale I was using) and it doesn't smell either.

They were making this yesterday in the store but every time we passed they had lines. I almost bought a bag just because of that. Figured it had to be good. May make a trip back in the next week or so to grab one or two if it's seasonal.

Costco has joined Kroger and Wal-Mart in their efforts to get the Texas Legislature to change the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code that prohibits public companies from selling liquor in the state.

Lobster ravioli was very good. I made a lemon butter crab meat sauce for it and it was amazing.

Gasoline. Probably not any better than major brands but always at a good price compared to other nearby gas stations.

Costco is a "top tier" seller of gasoline. It's a great deal

They sell liquor in Texas but they can't sell the Kirkland brand liquor - so you miss out on the best deals.

24 oz bag of shelled pistachios for 12.99 is a great deal.

Compare that 13.99 for 16 oz at Whole Foods.

Liquor prices are good and consistent. No trickery with price tags week to week, like other stores that advertise an ON SALE price that's more than you paid a few weeks ago.

it's not a powder, it's granulated. it's got a salt consistency. more aromatic and flavorful than the stuff you get at a local grocer
